The moon letters in J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit" are significant because they reveal a hidden message on Thorin's map that guides the characters to the secret entrance of the Lonely Mountain.

I'm not sure what you mean. Thorin's grandfather never gave Gandalf a mountain. As far as I know, Thorin's grandfather (Thror) died in Moria without ever meeting Gandalf. Gandalf did meet Thrain, Thorin's father, in the dungeons of the Necromancer and Thrain did give Gandalf a MAP of a mountain. And if your question is what is on the mountain on the map that Thrain, not Thror, gave Gandalf, in my edition of the Hobbit, it's a small picture of a dragon. Some of the spurs of the mountain also look like they're on top of it, but it's just a bird's eye perspective.
A map that shows the height of a mountain is called a topographic map or a relief map. These types of maps use contour lines to represent the elevation changes of the land and provide a visual representation of the mountain's height and terrain.
